Corten Steel Outdoor Sculpture. This outdoor sculpture is a study for moving into more abstract body forms. The more spare a sculpture, the more exaggerated the body needs to be to register the features in our mind. This figure, a prelude to the Cadence series, is a study in abstraction. Notice how much more abstract the front and back views are from the side view. However, it does not move into the Picasso-esque world of disjointed features as seen in some of the cadence series pieces. The corten, self-weathering steel has fully weathered and will stay looking the way it does, with modest changes in the patina, for decades to come. This piece does need to be anchored with bolts or long threaded rod into the ground for stability.

I Sculpt Movement.

I sculpt motion. I uses graphic lines of wood and steel to explore the motion and energy of dancers. Often working larger-than-life, my works will animate your home or garden. My passion is motion -- not the material. And thus, I explore different materials, at different scales, and with different levels of abstraction to explore how to enhance a sense of rhythm and motion in a static sculpture.
I was born in Casper, Wyoming in 1952 but I’ve mostly lived in cities on both the east and west coasts. Equally adept in both right- and left-brain activities, I’ve followed passions in both spheres. As a younger adult and mid-level professional, I pursued more analytic careers such as software development and corporate management and relegated my artistic side to avocations. As I became more confident in myself, I found ways to integrate both the analytic and artistic into my later careers – first as the owner of a home design/remodeling firm and now as a full-time sculptor. My sculptural work is heavy in digital design and fabrication.
